Trinity Bat HR Challenge set for Saturday

Fullerton-based Trinity Bat Company will host a Home Run Challenge at El Dorado High School to benefit the Cory Hahn Fund.

The charity was created to support Cory Hahn, a 2010 Mater Dei graduate who suffered a serious neck injury while playing baseball for Arizona State last February that left him partially paralyzed.

Among the major-leaguers expected to attend the event are Angels Hank Conger and Mark Trumbo, Danny Espinoza of the Nationals and Mike Carp of the Mariners.

Conger, Espinoza and Carp are expected to compete in the major-league portion of the Home Run Challenge. All three plus Trumbo are expected to sign autographs for fans.

There will also be home run-hitting competitions for high school and college players as well as an open category. The event is scheduled to run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with finals of the main event at approximately 2 p.m.

In addition, Rex Hudler will be broadcasting his radio show live from the event. There will also be raffles and auctions with signed memorabilia as prizes.
